If you want that they have to animate it because you can act with a piece missing from you're head. Bsides, Species 8472 doesn't look very human too me, neighter do the aquatic and insectoid xindi.

Species 8472 was animation fx and that's what I was suggesting trek needs more off. Ok it'll cost more but the shows are surely succesfull.

you are probably right, but i'm glad they didn't animate alien species in ST:TOS and ST:TNG, because back then the special effects where bad! (althought the borg worked out nicely)
